Business Analyst at ACTIVZ who cut executive report run time from several hours to about 30 minutes.
What I'm looking for
At ACTIVZ, I wrote SQL queries in Microsoft SQL Server and built Excel reports for the executive team, Operations, and Sales. I maintained about 30 recurring monthly reports covering promotions, fraud prevention, event qualification, and business performance.
I automated Excel graphs and charts and optimized SQL code, cutting report run time from several hours to about 30 minutes. I also built reports that translated promotion and qualification rules into accurate data logic.
At RAIN RETAIL SOFTWARE, I migrated data for 125+ client e-commerce websites and validated store content, product catalogs, and inventory. Earlier, as a volunteer missionary, I built vehicle tracking spreadsheets and analyzed routes to save thousands of driving miles during transfer windows.
